Snow-Bound At Eagle's is a novel written by Bret Harte, an American author and poet. The book tells the story of a group of travelers who become snowed in at a remote mountain cabin called Eagle's Nest during a harsh winter storm. The characters include a wealthy young couple, a gambler, a miner, and a mysterious woman who goes by the name of The Duchess. As they wait for the snow to melt and the roads to clear, they pass the time by telling stories, playing cards, and engaging in various romantic entanglements. However, tensions rise as they begin to suspect that one of their number is not who they claim to be. Snow-Bound At Eagle's is a thrilling tale of suspense, romance, and intrigue set against the backdrop of the rugged American wilderness.The speed and fury with which Clinch's cavalcade swept on in the direction of the mysterious shot left Hale no chance for reflection. He was conscious of shouting incoherently with the others, of urging his horse irresistibly forward, of momentarily expecting to meet or overtake something, but without any further thought. The figures of Clinch and Rawlins immediately before him shut out the prospect of the narrowing trail. Once only, taking advantage of a sudden halt that threw them confusedly together, he managed to ask a question.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
